Prepping on a Budget is a challenge but you can do it if you put your mind to it.  The way the government is taking over and people getting ugly and not caring what or who the damage to say they are doing damage. Our government has lost control and are cities and states in some areas or also losing control of there life style because of fear to take a stand and say you all need to get a job of your own and off your butts take proud in where you live and not take from others. We started falling when we made it hard for young people to get jobs after school and taking religion from the schools.  I was one of the young child that would take a job in the summer picking grapes and nuts and then working as typing this made my work ethic better.  I would work hard and then we would go buy school clothes and gifts for Christmas with then money for that summer.  Dove Medical Press has some ideas for you.
